    Summary

    When he sits back down at the head of the table, he kisses Gregory on the cheek. “Do you want to make a wish too?”

    Gregory gurgles, entranced by the flames of the eighteen candles, tears still drying on his reddened cheeks. Gregory rarely cries—a trait that does not run in the family, something the older four make a point to remind Eloise and Francesca—but when he does, he seems to pick the worst moments.

    Anthony wraps one hand around Gregory’s tiny fists as a safety precaution, and he reaches across the table, tugging the cake closer to them. He mimes it once before he starts blowing out the candles. Gregory copies him with a joyous coo.

    And, mid-laugh after Gregory manages to take out precisely one of the candles, Anthony realizes he does need to make a wish, and he has nothing he wants to wish for. So, he wishes for more of the same.

    Summary

    Kate thinks that it wouldn't be so bad to have some fun while helping Edwina find a husband and decides to let Lady Danbury introduce her to Eligible men, including (eventually) one Viscount Bridgerton. We go slightly AU here.

    Kate never overhears Anthony on the terrace and they run into each other differently.

    Kate has other suitors and Anthony will have to work for it.

    Anthony is still a clown, sorry to say.

    Summary

    After Anthony and Kate return from their honeymoon, everyone else in the family seems to understand the couple's mysterious preoccupation and frequent disappearances, but not Eloise. And Eloise is not a fan of not knowing something. Surely, she can figure this mystery out.

    But, as the saying goes, be careful what you wish for. You just might get it.
